Meet our Cannabis Related Business Team!
Other financial institutions may dabble in CRB services, but we do things a bit differently. We’ve created a whole team dedicated to serving your needs.
A team of experts – just for you
Our CRB team doesn’t juggle cannabis clients as a side project; they’ve earned their expertise through advanced training focused solely on cannabis banking and regulation — this is their specialty, and no one does it better.
The Cannabis Related Business Team is made up of 14+ professionals, including Business Development Managers, Loan Officers, a VP of Business Development, a National Sales Director, and the Choice Cash Services Team, all focused on supporting your compliance and financial needs.
Many of these experts, especially in business development, hold the Certified Cannabis Banking Professional (CBPA) certification from the Association for Cannabis Banking (ACBA). This advanced credential is earned through in-depth coursework on a wide range of cannabis banking topics, such as BSA Compliance, Federal Cannabis Reform, Best Practices for Audits, Specialized Treasury Services, and more.
Since its creation in 2020, the team’s commitment has quickly shown that its role goes beyond meeting the minimum standards — it’s about going the extra mile to provide the best service to our green-thumbed members.
Keeping you one step ahead
Compliance can make or break a CRB. A single misstep or missed deadline can result in costly penalties, account freezes, or even an abrupt shutdown. With ever-evolving regulations and legal requirements, staying ahead of the curve can feel like an overwhelming challenge.
This is why having a dedicated Cannabis Related Business Team on your side is essential. Our team specializes in keeping you compliant, offering personalized support and proactive advice so you can focus on what you love to do. We stay on top of the latest updates in federal and state requirements through continuing education, partnerships with Shield Compliance, and regularly reviewing industry news so that your operations stay on track and on the right side of the law.
We provide flexible support to make it easy for you to connect with the team. Members can walk into any of our 24 locations, and for specific cash-handling needs, we offer designated hub locations. Whether you need assistance with a quick query or are facing a more complex situation, our Choice Cash Team is available every day to make sure that immediate assistance is always available through phone, email, or in person.
Let’s grow together
Cannabis banking isn’t just a specialty — it’s a passion for growing business. We’re excited about the opportunities that this field presents for our communities, and we are dedicated to helping you seize them.
